The embezzler Holyk fled to Austria via the “Shlyakh”: how a person involved in the NABU data leak case crossed the border using a certificate

Yurii Holyk, an adviser to the Office of the President, the ideologue of the “Great Construction” program, and the central figure in the story about the NABU information “leak,” is likely already enjoying Austrian scenery.

This is reported by Vikryvach.

According to sources in the State Border Guard Service, he left through the “Shlyakh” system using a disability certificate. The final stop, the interlocutors of the publication say, was Austria.

I remind you that in May 2024 a scandal erupted over a possible leak of official information from NABU. Holyk himself, media reported, was a figure in that story.

At that time law enforcement conducted searches of a NABU employee. The Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAPO) confirmed that it was investigating the disclosure of operational-investigative materials. It later emerged that the matter involved a leak of information in Yurii Holyk’s case.

Things got even more interesting after that.

SAPO explained that the investigation concerns the case of the former head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration and Holyk’s partner, in which 1,5 billion hryvnias may have gone missing during the implementation of the “Great Construction.”

Because of the scandal, the first deputy director of NABU, Gizo Uglava, was suspended from his duties, and NABU and SAPO were even forced to jointly explain how it happened that official information began to take on a life of its own.
